Sorry Ben, but it was one hell of a long text file to edit.  Plus, some of it didn't make sense with the pm's going on.

Colin, you are still missing the big picture.  He's had complaints about a glitch (exploit if you like that better) in GR that lets ignored users get into games.  It also allows users to get into full games.  He's fixing this glitch (as far as he was concerned, the controls you use in GR should be the only ones you need to worry about).  Now, the only argument close to valid that anyone has presented to make it optional is so that PC users and banned users can join games.  Both of which he is against, and from his point of view, he should be against.  Giving you the option only lets you have a way to get someone around a ban.  Why in the world would he want to do that?  What is a good reason for making it an option that would fit in with the GameRanger model?

Typhy, bad examples.  you were banished.  Kicked out of the country; deported.  Not killed.  When you are in exile, you can't go back to have a beer with your old friends, they have to come to you.  Scott isn't taking away your ability to play RS, he's taking away your ability to play games hosted on GR.  Big difference.  What he's doing is saying that anyone that wants to play with Typhy (or anyone else banned) can, but can't do it on GR.  So, just like anyone else that's been banished in real life, your friends either go with you, or visit now and then, or say good-bye.  As for your sneaking back on, that's just like sneaking back into a country you've been exiled from.  The cost is usually much higher if you get caught.  

Most of the rest of you also forget that RS isn't the only game on GR.  And maybe some of the complaints came from other places.

that was the point i was trying to make typhy.  rs  isnt the only game out there, but we shure as hell act like it is.  that's just like us americans. a large percentage of us often think of the world in terms of  how it affects the u.s. only, forgetting the 5.7 odd billion people on the planet. the only difference between the attitudes on gr ans americans is the numbers

how about trying to think about what point i am trying to make before insulting me next time, ok?

  NO IP JOINING? wtf. i want a refund. ahhh what am i talking about.   anyway back to the point, IP joining is cool, and it's out Macsoft-given right!!! but i don't use it that much but stilll blah i feel as if my rights are being taken away. Now here comes the post from one of you asses to make me feel stupid and totally discredit my post. In advance, STFU!!!!

even though we arent the only ones out there Evill seems to take pleasure in either banning us or getting us riled (i cant spell) up. without IP joining he is cutting all the banned people out of game ranger for good... not to mention pc users. and without IP NADS just lost 2 ppl

wow, really?  he's keeping all the people that he kicked out of gr from joining gr games??  why would he want to do that??

sorry, i know that there is already another thread for this, but thought that the sarcasim was called for. people seemed shocked that evill would do something to keep banned users or pc users out of gameranger.  why in the hell this would shock anyone is beyond me.
